Sarina Wiegman called it one of the craziest matches of her career — England’s dramatic Euro 2025 quarter-final win over Sweden had everything: an early collapse, heroic comebacks, and a nerve-shredding penalty shootout.
The Lionesses conceded two quick goals and struggled to settle, but key substitutions — including Michelle, Chloe, Beth, and Esme — completely changed the momentum. Wiegman praised the team’s resilience, Lucy Bronze’s leadership, and Hannah Hampton’s game-saving performance.
With Leah Williamson facing injury concerns and Lauren James visibly fatigued, England now look ahead to a semi-final showdown with Italy. Wiegman says preparation will be key, but keeping the players mentally fresh matters even more.
